Victoria from Piqua, OH

There is a problem with non students coming to the campus and just walking around. By that I mean people who have no reason at all to be there.

Clubs and Activities

There are several clubs on campus. Just to name a few: Gaming Club, Cross Country Club, and CRU life ( a religious study group )

Great for these types of students

Great for all kinds of students: Part time students Full time students New Freshman students Non-Traditional Students The school is best for motivated students It can be a great way to get you excited on learning This school is great for second chances

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

No real traditions, that I know of, on campus.

Bang for the buck

You get back what you put in. Meaning if you don't try you wont succeed. I would say that the education is worth the cost.

The food is the BEST here. It can be pricey depending on what you buy, but it is delicious. The only downside to the cafeteria is that it has set hours. Luckily there are plenty of fast food places and restaurants within walking distance.

Academic Rigor

Getting A's is easy, but does require time and effort. Teachers don't just hand them out. As long as you do your best, this school can be very rewarding and a good preparation for transferring to a 4 year university.

Tips for prospective students

Your education depends on you. That means that if you have questions and you don't ask, getting an A will be difficult. The teachers are pretty laid back, but there are a few that are very strict. Just relax and have fun, but don't forget to study.

Edison is a great place to start your college education. It is a cheaper way to get your general credits, and transferring is made easy with many universities that partner with Edison. Every day is a new adventure, the campus is big enough to meet someone new every day, and small enough that teachers know my name.

Edison provides their students with a high quality education that still feel homey. I was very impressed with the quality of educators that instructed the classes. Most professors were had PhD or were PhD quality.

Campus Safety

The campus has great safety policies and a great parking facility for students. There is a parking officer who keeps an eye on the parking lot and for violators. I think this helps keep Edison safe, and keeps the cars from getting broken into also.

Clubs and Activities

Edison offers different clubs and activities rather if its for academics or just for fun. All though I personally am not involved with them I know some of my friends are very involved with campus activities. I work more than 60 hours a week so Its very hard for me to stay involved with more than just my classes.

Great for these types of students

Edison is great for all types of students young out of high school or middle aged ready for a new career and a new start. With the helpful professors and flexible classes Edison is a great school for a variety of students.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Not that I have ever been familiar with, but I usually take my classes online so I'm not to familiar with the campus traditions.

Bang for the buck

I think that Edison is a great school with a wonderful price tag. I really like that you can get your associates degree at a community college and then move on to bigger and better things. I think that also the dual enrollment option to get your bachelors at another partner school is a great way to save money!

What to do for fun

Edison being located in Piqua, Ohio there really isn't much fun things to do. However Edison does have a volleyball team and a basketball team that is fun to go watch during the sports seasons. I also enjoy going to Edison to go to the internet cafe to do homework or to meet up with my friends.

Food and Dining

I have really only ate in the cafeteria in Edison a handful of times but, they have a fair selection of different types of foods to eat. The wraps, and subs are usually what I would get and they were always fresh and delicious!

Dorm Life

Edison doesn't have any dorms.

Academic Rigor

I have really enjoyed my professors at Edison and I feel that they are all knowledgeable and well educated. They are helpful when you have questions and are understandable if something comes up in your life and you need help with an assignment.

Tips for prospective students

I think that students considering on going to Edison would be making a wise decision on saving money and getting the boring classes out of the way to move on to another school and transfer the credits they earned at Edison.

In three sentences

I think that Edison is a good school to take your general education classes. The price is reasonable and I feel that the teachers are qualified for the classes they teach. I also appreciate the online classes that are offered at Edison Community College.
